That was purely "fluff" to explain how the NAC units got so close to a critical defense node, and to explain why all units had to use the same entry hex - to do so they would have been violating the stacking rules, if nothing else.
The entrance hex indicates the point at which "normal game rules" are in effect; prior to that narrative convention applies.
